Featuring: Crying For John Lennon, by Hargo, Produced by Phil Spector
(To my knowledge, this peace-loving Trailer
which had gone viral with 424,000 views in two months,
was the first video ever to be censored by YouTube.com,
which shadow-banned it two months after its release on January 13, 2009.)

“By morning, the gates of the Dakota looked like the wall of a Mexican church, or an instant Lourdes, covered with a collage of flowers, messages, photographs, drawings. The crowd had been brought together as if to some new Holy Place, expressing a deep primitive need to mourn. The mourners were not kids, either. I saw men in raincoats come by carrying briefcases, sealed into lives of business and marriage, the sixties part of some golden adolescence, and one at a time, they stood there on the corner, out of the vision of the TV cameras, and, like the people of the night before, wept openly while Beatles music played from dozens of radios. The music seemed elegiac now, all those songs that never went away and probably never will. But now one thing was absolutely certain: John Lennon was dead, and so were the Beatles. They would never come back now. They would never fill a stadium again, never journey all the way back to the years when they changed the English-speaking world and the rest of the world that didn’t know the meaning of Yeh, yeh, yeh.”
Pete Hamill

December 8, 1980
I was driving my taxi in Manhattan on that beautifully warm Monday evening of December 8, 1980. At around 10 pm, I was traveling without any passengers, going north on Central Park West, when I made a slow left turn on to 72nd Street. When I was driving my taxi in the neighborhood of the Dakota and without passengers, I would often go by it very slowly, on the slight chance that I may see John. As soon as I made the slow left turn on to 72nd Street, now looking towards the front of the Dakota, my instinct sensed something was wrong. So, I slowed down to a crawl while passing in front. I first noticed the outside doorman Jose Perdomo, which somehow took the media six plus years to finally name correctly, who was standing on the left side of the archway. He was just outside of the doorman enclosure. Then, I looked directly at this other man, and right away sensed that he was lurking in the darkness. He was standing alone on the sidewalk, on the right side of the archway. My intuition told me something was terribly wrong, and I very nearly stopped my taxi. The next day this man was identified as Mark David Chapman.

“Dakota” T-Shirt
The name Dakota means “friend” or “ally” and is of Sioux, Native American origin. The apartment building where John Lennon was assassinated on the night of December 8, 1980 is known as The Dakota. For many people, John Lennon’s assassination in 1980 was one of the few “where were you?” moments, ranking alongside the death of John F. Kennedy and 9/11.

US Blocks UN Gaza Ceasefire Appeal
Washington has vetoed a resolution demanding a humanitarian cessation of fighting in the Israel-Hamas war
The US has cast the lone dissenting vote against a proposed UN Security Council resolution that would have demanded a humanitarian ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war amid rising civilian casualties in the Gaza Strip. Thirteen member states voted in favor of the resolution, which was put forward by the United Arab Emirates, on Friday in New York. The UK abstained, leaving Washington diplomatically isolated in blocking the measure. “What is the message we are sending Palestinians if we cannot unite behind a call to halt the relentless bombardment of Gaza?” Deputy UAE UN Ambassador Mohamed Abushahab asked members of the council. “Indeed, what is the message we are sending civilians across the world who may find themselves in similar situations?”

Towards A Palestine Without Palestinians
Israel’s ethnic cleansing continues with no end in sight
On Friday December 1st active Israeli combat operations resumed directed against Gaza after a one week “pause” to exchange hostages and prisoners. It should surprise no one to learn that Israel’s ultimate objective in its sustained war crime directed against Gaza is to kill and/or drive out its 2.3 million Palestinian inhabitants. The adopted policy, which has been revealed through a top level Israeli intelligence document relating to options for operations in Gaza that was leaked to the media, “…recommends a full population transfer as its preferred course of action. …” to include “the evacuation of the civilian population from Gaza to Sinai.” And Israel should “Make It Clear [to the refugees that] there Is No Hope of Returning [home]” with the final objective being “wiping Gaza off the map.”

Behind Enemy Bars: Palestinian And Israeli Prisoners
The fair treatment of Israeli captives by Hamas has become part of the information war between Palestinians and Tel Aviv. Left unsaid is that there remain thousands of Palestinians in captivity who barely survive their Israeli detention.
The issue of Prisoners of War (POWs) taken captive by Hamas-led Palestinian resistance forces has become one of the key justifications for Israel’s military assault on the Gaza Strip. While western audiences are often presented with the image of these groups as bloodthirsty terrorists, a closer look reveals that Hamas and other factions may have treated Israeli captives more humanely than how Israel treats Palestinian political prisoners. While the Israeli POW issue spans eight weeks, the plight of Palestinian captives has persisted since at least 1967. There are said to be some 137 Israelis that are currently being held captive in Gaza, whom Hamas claims all are males and/or soldiers. In the seven-day truce struck in November between Hamas and Israel, the Palestinian resistance released 108 women and children held captive in Gaza. In return, Israel was to release 300 Palestinian women and children held in detention and permit much-needed aid into Gaza through the Rafah crossing with Egypt.

Illegal Crossings Along Southern US Border Hit Daily Record Of 12,000 – Reports
MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The ongoing migrant crisis at the US southern border has hit an all-time record for daily encounters, with over 12,000 undocumented migrants detained while attempting to cross the US-Mexican border unlawfully, Fox News reported on Friday. The record was smashed on Tuesday, the report said. Of the total, over 10,000 people were attempting to sneak into US territory between ports of entry. This comes after the recent record in weekly encounters set in the US state of Arizona, where a total of 17,500 undocumented migrants were apprehended at the border, according to the report. These numbers show that the migrant crisis has worsened despite the efforts of the Biden administration, the news channel reported. In mid-November, the Republican Party said it would refuse to back another round of military aid to Ukraine unless the migration problem on the US’s southern border was addressed.

Toothless Body: Why Has International Criminal Court Failed Palestinians?
International Criminal Court (ICC) Prosecutor Karim Khan’s recent visit to the occupied West Bank and Ramallah once again laid bare the Haque-based international tribunal’s strong pro-Israel bias. It was his first-ever visit to the occupied Palestinian territories and came amid the Israeli regime’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, with the backing of the United States. Even though the Tel Aviv regime does not recognize ICC’s jurisdiction and refuses to cooperate with it, Khan told the Israeli authorities that his office would be happy to cooperate with the regime. Amid the Israeli regime’s war against Palestinians in Gaza, which started on October 7, many world leaders, activists, and commentators have raised questions over the submissiveness of the ICC. The first reaction of Khan, a British lawyer who has been serving as the ICC prosecutor since June 2021, came three days after the Israeli regime launched bombings on Gaza in October. In a statement issued on October 10, Khan confirmed that the ICC’s mandate applies to the latest confrontation between the Israeli regime and Palestinians, adding they are continuously gathering information in support of an investigation about what happened on October 7. Palestine joined the international court in 2015, while the regime in Tel Aviv is still not a member of the ICC and has repeatedly rejected its jurisdiction and does not formally engage with it.

The Missing Link To Comprehending Israeli Mass Murder And Racism
Cancel culture has determined that this knowledge is forbidden to you
Nicholas Kristof, writing December 6: “…twice as many children have died in Gaza just since the war started on Oct. 7 as in all the conflicts worldwide in 2022, according to UN figures. Almost one out of every 150 Palestinian children in Gaza have been killed in just two months,” noted Dr. Zaher Sahloul, president of MedGlobal, an aid group working there. “That is the equivalent of half a million American children.” “Dr. Sahloul warned that many others may ‘die from infections, waterborne diseases or dehydration,’ while others will suffer from lifelong physical disabilities. “We tell the world that we are supporting Ukraine because of our belief in the ‘rules-based international order,’ and then we provide weaponry that ends up killing children on a huge scale in Gaza. Too many see events through a prism in which (Israeli) lives are invaluable on one side while (Palestinian) deaths on the other are regrettable. “The pace of killing of civilians has been much greater than in most other recent conflicts; the only one that I know of that compares is perhaps the Rwanda genocide in 1994. Far more women and children appear to have been killed in Gaza than in the entire first year of the Iraq war…pulverizing entire neighborhoods…”

Stuff The BBC Might Have Forgotten To Mention
The Israelis have reportedly taken more new hostages than they’ve released. They’ve been picking up civilians in the West Bank (where there is no Hamas) in order to keep their prisons well stocked. Palestinian prisoners released by the Israelis have complained of being badly mistreated. Some time ago, Zelenski introduced a law banning any discussion of peace negotiations. Some of the Israeli hostages who died were killed by Israeli attacks. Israeli prisoners who complained of not getting enough to eat should blame their Government for banning food trucks entering Gaza. The Israelis failed to produce evidence showing that Hamas was operating in the hospitals, schools and refugee camps which they bombed and destroyed. The excellent website The Expose reports that young people are dying of cancer at explosive rates’. Analysts have shown that death rates from cancer are two or three times normal rates. Teenagers and young adults are dying from rapidly metastasising cancers at an unprecedented rate since mass covid-19 vaccination began. I warned that this would happen over two years ago. Individuals criticising Israel’s genocidal attacks on civilians are being sacked and attacked as being anti-semitic. As far as I know no one has been sacked for criticising Palestinians. It has been reported that Israel wants to appoint war criminal Tony Blair as Gaza Humanitarian Coordinator’. I confess I fell off my chair laughing when I read about this. The Chief Rabbi would be an equally good choice. News items of this type should come with a health warning.

China-EU Ties Essential To Global Peace, Stability And Prosperity: Xi
Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday met with top EU officials in Beijing and stressed that China and the EU should be partners for mutually beneficial cooperation, strengthen two-way political trust, build strategic consensus, cement the bonds of shared interest, eliminate various kinds of interference, and jointly tackle global challenges. Xi made the remarks when meeting with President of the European Council Charles Michel and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, who are in China for the 24th China-EU Summit at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing. Xi said that since the end of last year, the China-EU relationship has shown a good momentum of consolidation and growth, and the China-EU high-level dialogues in the strategic, economic and trade, green, and digital fields have produced rich outcomes, adding this serves the interests of both sides and meets the expectations of their people.

Republican Lawmakers Blast Biden Proposal Aimed At Defunding Pro-Life Pregnancy Centers
‘Women deserve better than abortion and should receive support when they choose life for their babies,’ the 29 GOP senators and congressmen said.
WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) — Republican lawmakers in Washington, D.C., have expressed “deep concern” over a proposal from the Biden administration that would increase scrutiny of pro-life pregnancy centers and their qualifications for federal welfare funds. A notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) published on October 2 seeks to amend the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) federal welfare program and specifically takes aims at pro-life centers. The proposal is sponsored by the Office of Family Assistance (OFA), the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). On December 1, a letter signed by 29 federal lawmakers was submitted to HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra, expressing “deep concern” over the proposal’s language, which suggests “targeting [pro-life] pregnancy centers” by disqualifying them from receiving funds from the TANF.

Shocking Report: U.S. Government Data Reveals A Staggering 143,233% Surge In Fatal Cancer Cases Linked To COVID Vaccinations
Cancer begins when genetic changes interfere with the normal replication and replacement of cells in the body. Cells start to grow uncontrollably and may form a tumour. It is the No. 2 leading cause of death in the United States. Unfortunately, it appears the disease may be on the rise thanks to the experimental Covid-19 injections. Because official U.S. Government data confirms the risk of developing cancer following Covid-19 vaccination increases by a shocking 143,233%. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) hosts a Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) which contains historical data on adverse reactions reported against every vaccine that has been administered in the United States of America. A quick search of the CDC VAERS database on the number of cancer cases reported as adverse reactions to the Covid-19 injections since they were first rolled out in the USA, reveals that from December 2020 up to 5th August 2022, a total of 2,579 adverse events related to cancer were made in just 1 year and 8 months.

“All We Do Is Count Bodies”
Worsening humanitarian disaster, bombing of northern Gaza approaching scale of WWII, Israel bombs 800-year-old mosque, UN chief hits “panic button,” more guns in Israeli civilian hands, West Bank struggles, US fails to acknowledge Israel’s baby abandonment a “war crime”, another exposé on Israel’s atrocity claims
‘All we do is count bodies’, Gaza health official says: Munir al-Bursh, director-general of the Health Ministry in Gaza, who has just lost a number of his relatives in an Israeli army attack, has a grim message to pass along. The Israeli occupation wants to kill hope, it wants to kill our youths, our children, and women…[they] do not differentiate between a child and the elderly…Today, those wounded in Gaza die of bleeding … We cannot do anything for them. They [Israeli forces] emptied hospitals of their supplies and left them as morgues to large numbers of bodies. All we do is count bodies. The Health Ministry has said that about 800,000 people in northern Gaza are now left without any form of medical care.

The War Criminal And Mass Murderer That Many Evangelical Leaders Adored
The Wicked Warlock of the West is dead. Henry Kissinger has gone to his eternal abode.
Kissinger was the quintessential warmonger. He was the warmonger’s warmonger. He was personally instrumental in the murder of at least 3 million people—and that is being VERY conservative. Kissinger never saw a war he didn’t like, and he was still promoting war up to the day he entered eternity. I’ll start with TheIntercept.com: Henry Kissinger, national security adviser and secretary of state under two presidents and longtime éminence grise of the U.S. foreign policy establishment, died on November 29 at his home in Connecticut. He was 100 years old. Kissinger helped prolong the Vietnam War and expand that conflict into neutral Cambodia; facilitated genocides in Cambodia, East Timor, and Bangladesh; accelerated civil wars in southern Africa; and supported coups and death squads throughout Latin America. He had the blood of at least 3 million people on his hands, according to his biographer Greg Grandin. There were “few people who have had a hand in as much death and destruction, as much human suffering, in so many places around the world as Henry Kissinger,” said veteran war crimes prosecutor Reed Brody.

Israel Rounding Up Hundreds Of Palestinian Boys, Men And Disappearing Them (Text and Video)
Shocking images and video footage circulating online show the boys and men stripped to their underwear and left sitting on the ground in the cold winter temperatures in Gaza.
Hundreds of Palestinian boys and men over the age of 15 are being rounded up by occupation forces in northern Gaza, stripped of their clothes and taken away. Shocking images and video footage circulating online show the boys and men stripped to their underwear and left sitting on the ground in the cold winter temperatures in Gaza. They can be seen surrounded by heavily armed Israeli occupation soldiers who are screaming orders at them. Further images show an army people carrier filled with the men being driven away. It is not clear how many boys and men were disappeared, but some reports have put the figure as high as 700. They are said to have been taken from shelter schools in northern Gaza where thousands of displaced civilians were forced to take shelter as a result of the bombing and destruction of their neighbourhoods and homes. Reports that among those taken is Diaa Al-Kahlot, bureau chief of Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed newspaper in Gaza. With social media users saying they have identified him sitting in a vest and his underwear among the rows of men in the images released.

Jesus Buried Under Rubble In Bethlehem
Biden, Netanyahu and all Western enablers are the Herod figures of today who 2,000 years ago massacred infants in an attempt to kill the Son of God.
All the Christian Churches in Bethlehem will not be celebrating Christmas in the usual way this year. There will be religious services and prayers but there will be no festivities and lights. The prevailing atmosphere is one of mourning and solidarity with the people of Gaza and the West Bank who are suffering genocidal violence from the Western-backed Israeli state. Bethlehem is the historic birthplace of Jesus whom Christians believe is the Son of God. Nearly 2,000 years ago, Christians believe the “savior of the world” was born in poverty and in a humble stable in Bethlehem, a town in what is now the Occupied Palestinian West Bank territory. Instead of the Roman Empire, we now have the U.S. and its American-armed Israeli garrison. Every year there are usually magnificent celebrations to commemorate Christmas in Bethlehem, with a splendid lit-up giant Christmas tree aloft in the town square, along with fireworks and droves of pilgrims from all over the world. This year, however, there will be no visitors from overseas as the West Bank and Gaza, the other Palestinian territory, are submerged in shockingly brutal military violence meted out with impunity by the Israeli state, armed to the teeth by an indulgent Washington.

Joint Investigation Finds Israeli Tank Shell Killed Journalist In Lebanon
A joint investigation by Reuters, AFP, Human Rights Watch, and Amnesty International found on October 13 an Israeli tank conducted a lethal attack on journalists in southern Lebanon. Since October 7, Israeli military operations have killed and injured scores of journalists across Lebanon, the West Bank, and Gaza. The investigators concluded that an Israeli tank shelled a group of easily identified journalists. Reuters videographer Issam Abdallah was murdered. Agence France-Presse photographer Christina Assi was severely injured. Other journalists from Reuters, AFP, and Al Jazeera were also wounded. Dylan Collins, an AFP videographer who was with Abdallah when he was killed, said, “We felt safe, we felt secure, so we got to work, seven journalists, all of us wearing flak jackets and helmets, everyone clearly marked as a member of the press. The Israelis knew we were there from the moment we arrived.”

David Stockman On Washington’s Entrenched War Machine
After the Berlin Wall fell in November 1989 and the death of the Soviet Union was confirmed two years later as Boris Yeltsin courageously stood down the Red Army tanks in front of Moscow’s White House, a dark era in human history came to an abrupt end. The world had descended into a “77-Years War”. It had incepted with the mobilization of the armies of old Europe in August 1914. If you want to count bodies, 150 million were killed by all the depredations that germinated in the Great War, its foolish aftermath at Versailles, and the march of history into World War II and the Cold War that followed inexorably thereupon. Upwards of 8% of the human race was wiped out during that span. The toll encompassed the madness of trench warfare during 1914-1918; the murderous regimes of Soviet and Nazi totalitarianism that rose from the ashes of the Great War and the follies of Versailles; and then the carnage of WWII and all the lesser (unnecessary) wars and invasions of the Cold War including Korea and Vietnam.

A Final Resolution Of The Jewish Issue
Assemble and Abandon
We no longer have a Jewish Question or a Jewish Problem. We have tried for millennia to answer the question and solve the problem-and failed. We thus must see it as a Jewish Issue. An Issue does not have an answer or a solution, it has a Resolution. An Issue is far more complex, and its Resolution far deeper and more thorough. We struggle to conceive with clarity the exact form of such a Resolution. In the light of recent developments in Palestine/Israel, a potential Resolution is now emerging into greater clarity. Perhaps this is not a new revelation to our Folk, but a clear presentation of its details now will inspire efforts toward its realization. This Resolution will develop in stages.

The Imminent Demise Of Christianity In America: “Come Out Of Her My People Lest You Share Her Plagues…”
In my last article, I documented how a modern-day interpretation of Biblical prophecy taking into account recent events that have occurred since 2020 and the Great COVID Scam can easily lead one to conclude that the “revived Roman Empire” that many see in the book of Revelation can really only be applied to the United States as “The Great Prostitute” and “Babylon” that is the object of God’s fierce anger and “last day” judgments against “Babylon”, and “the Beast” which is the financial system. As I write this today, on December 7, 2023, world events are rapidly developing into what many people are referring to as an imminent “doomsday” scenario. These events are unfolding so fast right now, that I just simply do not have time to cover all of them, even though I am staying on top of them. Here are some of the news items (much of it censored in the U.S. Corporate Media) that have occurred in the past few days that suggest time is short now before major, cataclysmic events erupt (open the article to see). Israel and the U.S. Zionists are quickly losing the (dis)information war, and are now paying “influencers” on social media to promote Israel, or to take down content that criticizes Israel.

Martyrdom Of Dr. Refaat Al-Areer, The PIC Social Media Founder And Manager
The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) mourns with grief and pride Dr. Refaat Al-Areer (Abu Omar) one of the pillars of the PIC English language site and the founder and manager of its social media department. Abu Omar was killed along with his brother, sister and her four children in an Israeli shelling that targeted her house in Gaza City in yet another proof of the barbarity of the Israeli genocidal campaign on the Gaza Strip that has been ongoing for more than two months. Dr. Refaat was an English language professor in the Islamic University that was destroyed in the barbaric Israeli aggression and whose rector was also killed by Israeli shelling along with his family. The martyr was distinguished for advocating the Palestine cause at various western and international media platforms. He wrote a book about Gaza titled “Gaza Writes Back” in the English language and had numerous notable interviews with western media outlets.

I Documented Two Israeli Wars On Gaza. This Current One Is The Worst.
After seven weeks of relentless Israeli bombing throughout Gaza, according to the modest estimates of the UN as of November 23 (right before a humanitarian ceasefire came into effect), more than 14,800 people have been killed in the enclave, including about 6,000 children and 4,000 women. While these Israeli attacks on Gaza are by far the worst yet, with Israel dropping a reported 40,000 tons (update: now 50,000 tons) of explosives in less than two months, it is worth recalling that Israel has repeatedly waged assaults against the Palestinians of Gaza over the past 15 years. Living in Gaza for years between late 2008 to March 2013, I was witness to two major Israeli assaults (and countless smaller ones over the years). Here, I will highlight what I saw and documented, to show that the horrific Israeli war crimes we are seeing coming out of Gaza are not new, even if they are exponentially worse this time around.

The Myth That Putin Was Bent On Conquering Ukraine And Creating A Greater Russia
There is a growing body of compelling evidence showing that Russia and Ukraine were involved in serious negotiations to end the war in Ukraine right after it started on 24 February 2022 (see below). These talks were facilitated by Turkish President Recep Erdogan and former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and featured detailed and candid discussions on the terms of a possible settlement. By all accounts, these negotiations, which took place in March-April 2022, were making real progress when Britain and the US told Ukrainian President Zelensky to abandon them, which he did. Coverage of these events has focused on how foolish and irresponsible it was for President Joe Biden and Prime Minister Boris Johnson to put an end to these negotiations, given all the death and destruction that Ukraine has suffered since then – in a war that Kyiv is likely to lose.

Self Assembly Nanotechnology Microplastic Polymers Contributing To Turbo Cancers, Accelerated Aging And All Diseases
I have been warning people about accelerated turbo cancers now seen in the C19 unvaccinated for many months. I had seen a sudden uptick with young people dying from cancers within a few months from diagnosis to death who have been exposed to shedding. Everyone is talking about Turbo cancers now, but not about the fact that many teams did not find elements of life in the shots, which means there was no mRNA or other DNA in them. Of course, many are touting the SV40 sequences as the discovery of the century, but vaccines have always been designed to cause cancer. Even polio vaccine contained SV40 in 1955. It is known that SV40 was given in vaccinations for over 35 years – and that is just the covered up tip of the iceberg: Vaccine scandal revives cancer fear.

Obsequious Elon Grovels, Then Curses
Why won’t he stand up honestly against Jewish power—and the Jewish State’s genocide?
Elon Musk is the world’s richest man. With a net worth estimated at $232 billion, he ought to be able to say whatever he likes without looking over his shoulder. But Elon Musk is afraid of something. As Woodrow Wilson wrote in The New Freedom: “Some of the biggest men in the United States in the field of commerce and manufacture are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.” Elon Musk made the mistake of speaking—or, rather, tweeting—above his breath in condemnation of Jewish power. On November 15, Musk endorsed a post on X that read: Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them. I’m deeply disinterested in giving the tiniest shit now about western Jewish populations coming to the disturbing realization that those hordes of minorities that support flooding their country don’t exactly like them too much. You want truth said to your face there it is. Musk’s reply: “You have said the actual truth.”

Russian Economic Miracle Joins The World’s Top Five Performing Economies
By the end of 2023, the Russian economy will grow by at least 3.5%, said President Vladimir Putin and exceeds pre-sanction levels. In addition, since the beginning of the year, real wages and disposable incomes of the population have increased by an average of 7 and 4.4%, respectively, and the budget deficit has decreased to 0.5% of GDP. The number of foreign enterprises registered in the country continues to grow, despite all the statements of international business about leaving the Russian Federation. Moreover, based on the results of all 12 months, economic growth may be even greater. President Vladimir Putin revealed. Russia entered the top five largest economies in the world and became the first in Europe in terms of purchasing power parity. In GDP growth, the country is now ahead of all leading EU states. ‘Now let someone say that Russia is a gas station, as they tried to talk about it just recently,’ the head of state emphasized. In general, the Russian financial system is in a normal, absolutely healthy state,’ Putin assured. Let us recall that last year, after the start of a special military operation, Western countries began to announce large-scale anti-Russian sanctions. Over 15.2 thousand various restrictions have been introduced. his is more than against Iran, Syria, North Korea, Belarus, Venezuela, Myanmar and Cuba combined.

Doug Casey On The End Of The Nation-State
There have been a fair number of references to the subject of “phyles” in this publication over the years. This essay will discuss the topic in detail. Especially how phyles are likely to replace the nation-state, one of mankind’s worst inventions. Now might be a good time to discuss the subject. We’ll have an almost unremitting stream of bad news, on multiple fronts, for years to come. So it might be good to keep a hopeful prospect in mind. Let’s start by looking at where we’ve been. I trust you’ll excuse my skating over all of human political history in a few paragraphs, but my object is to provide a framework for where we’re going, rather than an anthropological monograph. Mankind has, so far, gone through three main stages of political organization since Day One, say 200,000 years ago, when anatomically modern men started appearing. We can call them Tribes, Kingdoms, and Nation-States.

America, What The Hell Happened?
A retrospective look and the gradual decline of a once-great power…
In Bishop Fulton J. Sheen’s book (1954 / 63 cents), “Way to Happiness,” he lamented, and I quote, “Lenin once said that America would collapse by spending itself to death.” I assume that the good bishop was paraphrasing Vladimir. US Federal debt at the time stood at nearly $300 billion compared to the $33 trillion that you and colleagues have been slamming (rightfully) over the past several months. What a ‘way to happiness.’ ~ From a Dear Reader. We are looking at how things have changed…from the dynamic prosperity of the ‘30 glorious years’ 1950-1980…when Bishop Sheen wrote his book…to the huge, (largely fake) boom of our adult lives, the 1980-2020 period. The rich got very rich in the second period, including Buffett and Munger. But everybody else struggled to stay even. Debt rose. Prices rose. Real wages did not. As we’ve seen, Milton Friedman’s new money system did not really eliminate inflation and debt crises; it made them worse. Honest prices – especially honest prices for credit – are the True North to navigators on the wide capitalist sea. There’s a lot of water. And it’s not easy to get where you want to go. Distorting prices with Fed policy mistakes is like shifting the stars or bending the compass; a lot of sailors end up on the rocks.

Days Of Lot: ‘Nudify’ Apps That Use AI To ‘Undress’ Women In Photos Are Soaring In Popularity
Apps and websites that use artificial intelligence to undress women in photos are soaring in popularity, according to researchers. In September alone, 24 million people visited undressing websites, according to the social network analysis company Graphika. Many of these undressing, or “nudify,” services use popular social networks for marketing, according to Graphika. For instance, since the beginning of this year, the number of links advertising undressing apps increased more than 2,400% on social media, including on X and Reddit, the researchers said. The services use AI to recreate an image so that the person is nude. Many of the services only work on women. These apps are part of a worrying trend of non-consensual pornography being developed and distributed because of advances in artificial intelligence — a type of fabricated media known as deepfake pornography.

Starbucks Loses $11 Billion In Value From Pro-Palestine Action
Western companies across the world have faced a harsh Q4 due to widespread boycotts in support of the Gaza Strip
Seatle-based Starbucks Corp has lost over $11 billion in value this last quarter due to Palestinian solidarity boycotts and employee strikes since the beginning of the war in Gaza on 7 October. The coffee giant tried to bounce back on losses with their holiday season “Red Cup Day” gimmick that would allow consumers to receive a free reusable holiday cup with every purchase. Since the announcement of Starbucks’ scheme in mid-November, the company has seen its market share crash by 8.96 percent, accounting for $11 billion in losses, the lowest it has experienced since 1992. Many of you have written to ask us about the accuracy of lists of companies being spread on social media. We have put together this definitive explainer to help focus our collective efforts on ending complicity with Israel’s apartheid regime.#BDS ??https://t.co/iXBj8HwQXo – BDS movement (@BDSmovement).

Attack On Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941
I Have Two Personal Stories Concerning Pearl Harbor That I Would Like To Share:
During my honeymoon, I visited Pearl Harbor on Sunday morning August 8, 1993. I’ll never forget when at the USS Arizona Memorial I looked over the railing down into the water and while saying a prayer, I saw what looked like oil coming to the surface. I stayed there looking down and sure enough again oil had come to the surface. I kept watching and every 30 seconds or so another little bit of oil would surface. I was amazed that almost 52 years later oil would still be seeping out of the USS Arizona. When I lived on Siesta Key, Florida (1997 – 2008), I had a wonderful conversation with an old navy man, Captain Ralph Emerson Styles, a graduate of the US Naval Academy in 1933. I had heard about him and that he did a sunset flag ceremony every evening from his home that was literally right across from beautiful Siesta Beach, at 99 Beach Road. He told me that he was in the attack at Pearl Harbor assigned to the submarine USS Narwhal, and that he was one of the gunners in action to assist in the destruction of two Japanese torpedo planes.

Pearl Harbor vs. 9/11
When asked the question, “What impresses you more about George W. Bush and Barack Obama, their absence of intelligence or their absence of integrity,” a ready answer comes to mind, and it is clearly not the same for each. But in the case of Bush’s first Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld, I think you will have to agree that it’s a tough call. That was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw in the pages of The New York Times that Rumsfeld had essayed a comparison between the momentous events in Hawaii on December 7, 1941, and in New York City, Arlington, VA, and Shanksville, PA, on September 11, 2001. The one big similarity that he was able to note was that—as the official script reads—we were caught completely by surprise in each case. In turn, that got me to thinking along the lines that I lay out in the opening paragraphs of my article, “America’s Dreyfus Affair, the Case of the Death of Vincent Foster.” Suppose you were a professor of United States history and had the opportunity to give the following assignment to your students in an exam: “Compare and contrast Pearl Harbor and 9/11.” What are the answers that you would be looking for from your best students? Surely they would have to say that each of the events resulted in our going to war. That’s where the comparison almost has to begin. But no sooner have we written it than a contrast arises. When Japan attacked us, we were, by definition, already at war. Disregarding, for the moment, what might have led up to the attack, one could hardly say about our war with Japan, as with our subsequent invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, that it was a “war of choice.”

Will IRS Tax You On Your Home’s “Appreciated” Value? [An Extremely Important Case Before The Supreme Court] (9:12)
A case before the Supreme Court now may redefine “income” once again. “Income” did not initially include wages. Then they changed the definition. Now they want to tax you on “unrealized gain”, assets that have gone up in value even though you did not sell or withdraw any money. It could be a precedent with devastating effect. Is this why Biden wants an IRS army (and the GOP goes along with it)?

President Raeisi Urges ‘Immediate’ Stop To Israeli Genocide On Russia Visit
Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi has called for an immediate stop to the Israeli “genocide and crimes against humanity” in the besieged Gaza Strip as he met his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Thursday.
President Putin greeted his Iranian counterpart in the Kremlin, where their talks centered on the Israeli invasion and expanding relations between Tehran and Moscow. “Gaza is a land where a child is martyred every ten minutes, so it is necessary to stop these bombings as soon as possible and find a quick and immediate solution,” President Raeisi said, adding “what is happening in Palestine is a genocide and a crime against humanity”. “The Zionist regime’s crime in Gaza is supported by the US and Western countries, and it is unfortunate that international organizations and organizations claiming to advocate human rights have lost their effectiveness,” he added. President Raeisi said, “What is afflicting humanity today is unilateralism and the unjust global system, and its manifestation can be seen in Gaza.” Putin received Raeisi a day after visiting the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, where he discussed Gaza and Ukraine and efforts by Russia and OPEC to boost oil prices.

Those Who Fall For The So-Called ‘Right Wing/Libertarian-Leaning’ Election Madness Are Acting As Absolute Fools!
“I have never voted in my life… I have always known and understood that the idiots are in a majority so it’s certain they will win.” ~ Louis-Ferdinand Céline
Here we go again. Each side of the coin being flipped is the same; both sides indicating parties of evil. It is the same game as always, and the same stupid people jump on board because this time, things will be different, and your guy will fix everything. This story is as old as time, but gets even more idiotic each and every election, as even more historical evidence and fact exposing the voting scam are easily obvious, showing the pure idiocy of voting for a master. For the thousandth time, doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different outcome, but finally, the good guy is here to save you. What a crock of crap is this, and how can any sane, thinking individual, fall into that same trap every election, without once understanding that he is in a circular game of hysterical lunacy?

US’ ‘Fighting A Proxy War To Avoid A Real NATO-Russia War’ Rhetoric Is Absurd
While the US is running out of money to support Kiev in its war with Moscow, in despair, President Joe Biden has turned to a seeming alarmist talk to “scare” Congress into paying more aid to Ukraine as soon as possible. But, in fact, no matter what the future holds for Ukraine, one thing is certain: For the sake of their selfish, geopolitical interests, the US and NATO will continue regarding Russia as their biggest enemy. On Wednesday, a bill authorizing tens of billions of dollars in emergency spending, including aid to Ukraine, faltered in the Senate. Earlier, Biden called on Congress to pass supplemental funding for Kiev before the holiday recess. He claimed that if Moscow wins the war with Kiev, keeps going, and then attacks a NATO ally, “then we’ll have something that we don’t seek and that we don’t have today – American troops fighting Russian troops.”

Thomas Massie Kicked A Rats Nest By Suggesting Congress Cares More About Israel Than America (Text and Video)
The meme in question is literally true. American patriotism is looked at negatively by Congress, by any measure
Thomas Massie posted a meme stating that Congress cares more about protecting Israel than America. This is really just an obvious fact, and that I don’t think can possibly be disputed. Yesterday, I wrote that the “conservakikes” at Breitbart denounced Massie, who is the most conservative member of Congress, over the post. The rats are really out in force. They swarm, these Jews. Senator Chuck Schumer (Jewish): Rep. Massie, you’re a sitting Member of Congress. This is antisemitic, disgusting, dangerous, and exactly the type of thing I was talking about in my Senate address. Take this down. https://t.co/jVX0NMdISI — Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) December 5, 2023. You see? They SWARM. These Jews are using our country like a condom as they fuck the world. That is the precise description of what is happening. They do not care about us, and in fact, the evidence is that they hate us. This situation is absolutely absurd. We cannot have these foreigners controlling our country while constantly claiming that they don’t control our country and then destroying anyone who points out that they control the country.

October 7, 2023: Israel’s Second 9-11
Sequels always suck.
Do you condemn Hamas?! It’s an easy question! Do you condemn the barbarism and horror of these savages who ruthlessly slaughtered innocent people and raped grannies, beheaded forty babies and stole kids’ soccer balls, and savaged rave music go-ers, it’s an easy question, either you condemn this terror or you…uhh…uhh… Just as they did with the original 9-11 by shipping off all the World Trade Center scraps from ground zero to China to be smelted down before any thermite could be detected, it’s time to bury the evidence of their second 9-11, you know, as a mark of respect to those they slaughtered. As I wrote on October 8th… Today the official narrative managers want us to believe the most technologically sophisticated surveillance state (inside and outside their citizens’ bodies—most vaxxed) couldn’t monitor people who they claim “want to wipe Israel off the map” in a geographical area the size of Brooklyn from Coney Island to Rikers Island. Any lapse in Israeli security that pathetic is a permitted and planned lapse in Israeli security.

Israel’s 43-Minute Hamas Atrocity Video Exposed
From private screenings to media manipulations and outright lies, the Israeli military is pulling out all the stops in its propaganda blitz to justify a total war on GazaAs the third month unfolds since the Hamas-led 7 October Al-Aqsa Flood operation and Israel’s scorched earth response on the Gaza Strip, it is evident that all is not progressing as planned for Tel Aviv. Both on the ground and in the online propaganda war, Israel’s claims are consistently debunked and exposed as fake news. Under scrutiny now is the much-ballyhooed 43-minute video compilation of 7 October events that the Israeli army has screened exclusively for select journalists and dignitaries. The footage allegedly shows the “worst atrocities” committed that day – acts that Israel says are too brutal for viewing by the general public. When first presented to 100 international media representatives on 23 October, Israeli army spokesperson Daniel Hagari drew parallels between Hamas and ISIS. He stated Hamas had: “Decided to commit this crime against humanity … to rape, to kill indiscriminately, to behead people. And yes … also babies. And they did this with complete understanding of what they were doing and what will happen afterward in Gaza as a consequence.”

USA And Israel Should Be Worried: The Muslim Middle East Is Moving Its Own Way
Less than a month before Russia takes over the chairmanship of BRICS-11 where both UAE and Saudi Arabia will be full members, Russia makes a big move to bring cooperation with UAE and Saudi Arabia to an unprecedented level. Russia ties everything together in this meeting: Head of States relations, Foreign Policy, Non-Dollar currency and Financial Policy, Industrial Policy, Nuclear Cooperation, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Space Development, International Direct Investments – and the whole private Business sector.

The ‘Diversity Is Strength’ Mantra Is Collapsing Across Europe
European Union struggles to absorb millions of new arrivals without any forethought as to how the experiment was supposed to work in the first place.
It should come as no surprise that hard-right political parties have become part of the European political landscape amid soaring crime rates and tumbling living standards, as national borders remain wide open. Last week, European capitals received yet another brutal reminder that, try as they might, it is impossible to forever tamp down the rise of anti-immigration sentiments. This latest wake-up call came as Geert Wilders, head of Party for Freedom (PVV), won in the Dutch general elections, grabbing 37 seats out of 150 (76 seats are need for a majority). The victory comes months after the collapse of former Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s government amid infighting over migration policy. “Migration is a large and important subject, both politically and socially,” Rutte told reporters in the Hague at the time. “Now that we cannot come to an agreement on this subject, we have jointly decided that the political support disappeared.”

Analyst: US Claims To Desire Peace With China ‘Nullified’ By ‘Extraordinarily Belligerent’ Behavior
The US is pushing the Philippines into adopting a belligerent stance in a small territorial dispute with China as part of longstanding plans to weaken Beijing by starting a war in the South China Sea, an essential sea lane to the Chinese economy, a regional expert told Sputnik.
The monthslong standoff over Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea has continued to simmer as China and the Philippines challenge the other’s claim of sovereignty over the submerged coral reef and the United States inserts itself into the dispute. On Monday, Beijing said that the American littoral combat ship USS Gabrielle Giffords “illegally intruded” in the waters near the shoal, which the US Navy claimed was “conducting routine operations in international waters … consistent with international law.” Such maneuvers are called “Freedom of Navigation Operations” (FONOPS) and are designed to show US contempt for what it considers the “excessive” maritime claims of other nations according to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), a treaty the US has never ratified.

If your position is based on truth and morality, you don’t need to make up lies to defend it, and you don’t need to hurl false accusations at those who disagree with it. If your position was based on truth and morality, you wouldn’t need to circulate bogus atrocity propaganda about decapitated babies, babies cooked in ovens, and murdered
